Forget Me Nots Excerpt

Goldwater, Lake District, England.

The early morning mist rolled across the smooth surface of the water towards the shore.  The dawn had just risen and the sun was strong enough to cast the first of its rays through the shroud of white over the surrounding hills. Clarissa raised her camera to capture the moment and rolled off another reel of film.  The main focus of her attention was a large Island in the middle of Goldwater Lake.  The place had fascinated her since a child.  On it was a old haunted Victorian mansion, the focus of many ghost stories after the murder of a young Victorian family.  The house was mysteriously hidden amidst the trees lining the shore and it was hard to capture even a glimpse of it, especially in the summer when the trees were in full leaf but it never stopped Clarissa trying.

Something caught her attention.  Zooming in to the boathouse on the Island she was surprised to see a tall man in a suit standing on the wooden jetty.  He was looking straight at her.  Clarissa zoomed in further until she could see his face more closely believing he couldn’t possibly see her properly from there and she would be undetected.  But the handsome dark haired man grinned back at her staring directly in to the camera.  Embarrassed she had been caught watching him, she lowered the camera.  When she looked up again he’d disappeared.

Raising her eyebrows, Clarissa let the camera sit on her neck and took in the eerie scene before her.  It wasn’t hard to see why the place was thought to be haunted.  She had taken enough photographs.  A few of them had to be worth putting in the book she was writing about the historical murders and the history of the Island.  She busied herself flicking back through a few of them.

“Clarissa.  Clarissa.”

Clarissa raised her head wondering who could be calling her name out here at this time of the morning.  The male voice sounded disembodied as it floated on the gentle cooling breeze.

I must be imagining it.

Ignoring it, Clarissa bent her head and looked through a few more photographs.  But there it was again and this time it was loud enough for her not to dismiss it as mere fantasy.  Clarissa whirled around looking for someone to be close by.  Nothing.  Her shoulders tensed.  Clarissa looked around once more feeling more anxious by the second.  She’d come here to escape, to hide.  Had he found her?  Picking up her tripod from the pebbled shore she started to walk back towards the cottage at a quick pace.  

 Constantly she behind her expecting the man she’d run from to creep up behind her and start tormenting her with his violence all over again.  Tears of anger and fear gathered and mingled in her eyes.  She’d been happy here and didn’t want to leave especially when the book was going so well.  But if he was here then she’d have to leave.  There would be no choice.

Safely back in the cottage, Clarissa wasted no time in bolting the door.  She pressed her forehead against its wood surface and breathed hard trying to calm the rising tide of panic filling her lungs and coursing through her blood.  She spoke to herself out loud.

“You are just imagining it.  Calm down.  He can’t find you.  He can’t.  Relax he isn’t here.  Come on get your arse in gear.  Breathe.  Focus on the book and nothing else.  I am not going to let him run me out of another town.”

Clarissa banged her fist against the door, anger and frustration overwhelming her.  Flicking the switch on the kettle she sank down on the chair in front of her laptop.  She picked up the camera again and searched through her pictures.

There were some good shots of the Island but that wasn’t what she was looking for.  It wasn’t until she reached the third one she found what she was looking for.  A ghostly faded black and white male figure in upper class English Victorian dress stood grinning at her from the side of the image - the owner of the voice.  Clarissa gasped and put her hand to her mouth.  He’d found her after all.  


The first part of the story is now available on Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk.
